abstract = "Paper presents tire as flammable material and some examples of tire fires in the
world. Uncontrolled tire fires produce a lot of smoke and air pollutants, including
benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Great heat leads to the generation
of pyrolytic oil which, when mixed with the fire extinguishing agent, contaminates
the surrounding soil, surface water, and underground water. Paper analyzes and
presents in particular the emission factors of incomplete burning of waste car tires.
Metal dust emissions have been presented, volatile organic compound emissions,
slightly volatile organic compound emissions, and emissions of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons. Evaluation of the effect on the air quality has been graphically presented
by modelling of uncontrolled tire burning by using EPA “SCREEN 3
MODEL”.",
